At the Right Time Nebraska lost the National Con Exposition because the officers of the National Corn Association insist ed on holding it in Omaha just be fore the holidays This met with so much objection on the part of bus iness men and newspapers that thp Omaha business interests let the show go The objection was that the corn show drew people into the city at a time when they would do most of their holiday trading in Oma ha instead of at home But for two years the corn show was an inspiration to the farmers of Nebraska and Iowa No one doubts its good influence and that it increas ed interest in farm crops to such an extent that we have larger yields from our lands Since the National Corn Exposi tion left Omaha there has been such an insistent demand for a mid winter farm crop exposition where the work of western states could be gathered under one roof and compared that enterprising Omahans have planned and arranged to hold the Western Land Products exhibit in the aud itorium of that ciy from January 18 to 28 It is to be held in the same building where the corn show was held and will take its place in every way except that only western states can enter their products and it thus becomes a greater exposition for the west than the now famous National Corn Exposition The dates selected should be more satisfactory and the attendance lar ger than at the corn show and by the exhibits made from Nebraska and Iowa people of the two states should be convinced when comparing soil products that these two states offer just as good advantages for more profitable agriculture as the newer states in the west which are making every effort to get settlers from Iowa and Nebraska Subscribe for The Tribune v V Frremaga Get the Genuine Alvays A substitute is a
